I like the ideas you represent in my name choices :) I do choose my names carefully but don't delve as deeply into meanings beyond what feels right. I can say that obsidian is also a sacred element used against evil by the Navaho nation; while my Dad's favorite colors (really our family colors) are red & black. Lots to discuss at some point. Thank you for taking the time to offer your comments Mouse. Much appreciated.
So true. There’s just so much information coming at you so hard and fast with an urgency that is unrelenting. I started on social media to spread truthful information that we weren’t getting from the media. Man did that snowball out of control. Now everyone is doing the same thing but not really anything else. I haven’t fallen into the trap of supporting a lot of people, only two in fact. You’re one. I’ve learned to select people I want read & have notifications set. I do have to resist looking for other news. Your point is well taken, my prayer life has suffered since I rejoined Twitter. My aim was to slowly introduce scripture and hopefully find likeminded people. It has really sucked me in and I’ve started limiting my time there. I do want to be a voice that glorifies His Name but I don’t think I will ever be heard in the mind numbing noise on Twitter.
While you may have chosen your screen names for other reasons, they are quite appropriate I think.
In ancient Ethiopia, Obsidian was used to create mirrors. Rex is a Latin title for King or Ruler. Interesting.
As a colour, red can designate blood and fire, among other things. Pin is a rod (wood or metal) used for fastening things together.
I'd like to think that wasn't by chance, as they seem more like guide markers.
And I think you are right. It's quite easy to become dazed and confused on platforms like twitter. I won't say how many times I've opened a comment box on some of them, wrote something, looked at it, then deleted it. Being truthful rather than harmful just isn't as easy as it sounds. And every soul that isn't already filled with evil doesn't always take the truth well, and to be fair, sometimes I so angered by the post that I don't want to be nice. Being angry isn't going to help anyone, so I probably delete more than I actually "tweet".
As for the sand, I have definitely had my friendly moments with it, because sometimes it is a comforter, a place to recoup and discuss things with my maker and be recharged. A little like Elijah I suppose.
